This was the greatest women's 10000 meter race in all of history.
What a shame the record won't count.
Field event athletes should never be allowed on the track during running events.
The inconsiderate athletes and officials who allowed this to happen need to be held completely responsible.
Of course the record will count. Do you know how much extra ground she ran by lapping people? Way more than that curb not being there during the the first 6k.
Common sense says she ran way more than 10k since she lapped people. The curb not being there is way less of an advantage than her having to run on the outsdie of lane 1 once she started lapping people.
